August Stitchy Chalkboard

 Good morning!
Here is August A Year In Chalk from Hands On Design! Isn't it adorable!

 It is sitting on a stack of coverless books in a thrifted picnic basket ..A white chicken ( Homegoods) a chalk painted mason jar ... thrifted cow creamer, vintage scale and bowl..with some sunflowers of course ..

 I am definitely not a camper .. but if I had a cute little camper like this maybe I would be :)
 I added a piece of black gingham to the back of this picnic basket ..I just put 3 dots of hot glue in the back and stuck it on ..it will peel right off if I want to change it.
 I got the pedestal frame at Michael's.. added a piece of black gingham to the back ( mounted on sticky needlework board) .. and I use a magnet on the gingham with a small piece of sheet metal on the back of the cross stitched piece ( also mounted on sticky needlework board). So it is very easy to change them out every month..and they take up very little room to store them..
 If you would like to see what I am up to everyday join me on Instagram and my Facebook page ! I do post on both almost everyday ..Links to my Facebook page , Instagram and Pinterest are in the sidebar .. Hope to see you there ! :)

Thanks so much for all your visits and sweet comments !

Such an adorable design and I love, love, love your sunflowers. I have some but will definitely plant more next year. They are such joyful flowers!

Oh, your most dainty fingers are on the ball! This is so very cute! Love your frame on the stand too! You do such pretty needlework. I just don't know how you do all you do! Must be some powerful vitamins you take. :)
Be a sweetie,
Shelia ;)

Another cute chalkboard finish, Priscilla! I am not a camper either, but always thought it would be fun to travel the U.S. in a nice big RV (unfortunately, my husband isn't on board with that idea!)...

I just found your blog thanks to another blogger who cross stitches!!( Sandy at I was a Home Ec Major). Love all your posts and will come back to see more this weekend when I have time to browse. Right now I am working on a Thanksgiving Cross Stitch!

Such a beautiful display and I love your stitched piece!

What a pretty vignette. Where do you get the sticky needlework board? I can't seem to find it locally.

What a sweet cross stitch design! And I love your summery display... so many fun details. And I love that some of them are thrifted treasures too.

Thanks for linking up to this week's Stitchery Link Party.
